Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A line striper is attached to a vehicle with a two point hitch and has a swivelable rotatable wheel mounted thereunder to support the striper on the ground. A main beam is releasably clamped and may be slid from side to side depending on operator preference. The gun boom may then be located on the desired side. A delay feature on the control allows the operator to look ahead on a sighting camera and pick the point at which he or she desires striping to start (or stop or any other operation). The controller then compensates for the calibrated distance between the sight point and the spray gun and then starts and stops the gun at the appropriate time given road speed.

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 18, 1997. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended April 18, 2017.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 18, 2019.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
